On macOS they are hidden folders so it will be hard to access them via the UI. You can however open a terminal and use a command like so
open /Users/{YOUR USERNAME}/Library/Application\ Support/0ad/
Hello @KeepThinkin
Can you give us more information about your mac and the version you are playing ? See ReportingErrors and GameDataPaths.
Hopefully interestinglog.html will contain some useful logs to us.
